  • A brilliant concept and easy listen

    I first started listening just over two months ago and have been bingeing ever since. Two good mates with an insane love of the silver screen that go incredibly in-depth to analyse, discuss and review the movie over a few drinks.

    I definitely chortle out loud more than once every episode at the guys losing it to la... more

  • My review.

    Can’t decide which impression I like the most. Macho man, Christopher Walken or Paul Sarone. They also talk about movies.

Topic Episode - SUPERMAN 2025 (SPOILERS)
Q: How are we feeling on the togetherness? Do the Snyder Bros have a point in saying, I don't want to go see that if they only like Man of Steel?
If you're going to go in there with a preconceived bias against this because you love Cavill or you love Man of Steel or Justice League, then you're not going to enjoy this because you've already set yourself up to not enjoy it.

Q: Would you watch it again?
Probably not. There's a lot of better action movies to watch before you watch this again.
